A fresh, inspiring guide for English teachers who want to teach with clarity, creativity—and less stress.
The Mindful English Teacher blends practical strategies with powerful stories to help you reimagine your classroom practice. From teaching Shakespeare and pre-1900 texts to tackling spelling, punctuation and grammar, literary analysis, and curriculum reform, this book offers clear, compassionate guidance for every stage of your teaching journey.
At the heart of the book is a vivid cast of contrasting personas—the Mindful and the Unmindful English Teacher—used to explore how small shifts in mindset and method can lead to big changes in how students learn, engage, and thrive.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to rekindle your love of the subject, this book will help you:

• Reduce anxiety—for yourself and your students
• Teach English with more presence, purpose and play
• Support diverse learners with confidence and care
• Bring energy and meaning back to core texts, from Othello to the 19th-century novel
• Create inclusive, joyful, and human classroom spaces

This isn’t about silent meditation or trendy fads—it’s about real, grounded strategies to help you teach better, feel better, and stay connected to what matters most.
